Ziv believes that for a successful outcome there has to be a partnership between the patient and the practitioner, and that well-being includes the mind, not only the physical body. Ziv Greenfeld started his journey toward natural medicine with a background in basic sciences,

mathematics and physics. Ziv received his B.Sc. in Mathematics and Atmospheric Physics, as well as his Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences from Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel.

Transitioning to medical studies Ziv earned his medical degree, MMBS, from Hebrew University, Jerusalem, and University for Medical Studies, Colombo, Sir Lanka. Ziv’s research in nephrology allowed him to develop acute and chronic models of renal failure, and aging mechanisms in the kidney.

Additionally, Ziv completed a Post-doctorate fellowship at West Virginia University with a focus on the mechanisms of renal aging.

Ziv expanded his education to include Chinese medicine which he studied in Israel, Sri Lanka and the United States, earning a Diploma in Chinese Medicine, as well as a Master of Science degree in Oriental Medicine. In addition to his Traditional Chinese Medicine training, Ziv earned certifications in Tui-Na as well as cosmetic acupuncture, in particular the Mei Zen protocols for

the face, neck and abdomen.

Ziv has a keen interest in treating vision issues. He trained extensively in improving vision with Chinese medicine, eye exercises and supplements. Another of Ziv’s passion is treating pain conditions. His success in relieving painful conditions comes from his use primarily of Dr. Tan’s

Balance method and Robert Doan’s Distal Needling Technique, both systems being extremely effective. Ziv is a Diplomate of Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) and skillfully uses Chinese herbs and supplements as part of the treatments, as well as ear and scalp acupuncture.

Ziv has trained extensively in mind-body medicine at Harvard Medical School and West Virginia University with a focus on Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction medicine. Ziv earned a Certificate in mind-body medicine from the National Institute for the Clinical Application of Behavioral Medicine. Additionally, the Academy of Guided Imagery awarded Ziv certifications in interactive guided imagery, and Heart Math protocols. Ziv’s proudest work is with the mind-body work noted above.

Before moving to Indiana Ziv taught classes and supervised Acupuncture students in the clinic of

the prestigious Pacific College of Oriental Medicine at the Chicago campus.

Married and the father of two children, Ziv lives in the quiet community of Greenwood, IN.
